Doctor in the House: Are Private Hospitals Too Expensive?

Dr George Lee returns to discuss the latest medical news. Expect deep insights delivered with generous humour. When we talk about private hospitals, what often comes up is the price. Are private hospitals too expensive? How do they justify their costs? We’ll be speaking to Datuk Dr Kuljit Singh, president of the Association of Private Hospitals Malaysia to find out more about this as well as the role of private hospitals in furthering public-private partnership to improve the provision of healthcare services.
